Chapter 7: The Strange Ghosts of Mountains and Rocks (I)

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, King Jiang Qi has been ordered to guard the towns of northern Xinjiang, and guard the northern and western frontiers of the Ming Dynasty together with Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Zhu Zhang, the king of Qin. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info They swept the remnants of the Mengyuan in Mobei on the one hand, and defended the Jinling of the Jingshi on the other. For many years, the kings led one side, and the tail was too big to fall, and the forces of all parties in the rivers and lakes were used for their own use.

Rumors spread in Jinling, and even some courtiers confronted the emperor and participated in the blessing of King Jiang Qi secretly enveloped the Tianxianglou of the rivers and lakes, intending to seek the Ming Dynasty. Taizu was furious, and ordered the protector of the Divine Sect to bless Wang Jiang Qi and a pot of wine, and lied to the outside world that Jiang Qi died depressed because of the loss of the "order of the world".

In the second year of the reign of King Fu Jiang Qi, the Yuanmeng cavalry raided the northern frontier, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, was ordered to support, and the two sides were killed in the Yinshan grassland for several months. In order to stabilize the situation in northern Xinjiang, the prince pushed Jiang Qi's son Jiang Yingxue to succeed to the title of King Fu, and the people in the rivers and lakes called King Xiaofu.

In order to show his heartfelt intentions and contain the King of Yan and the King of Qin, King Xiaofu secretly infiltrated Jinling under the escort of Jing Wuwei, and went to the East Palace to make suggestions to the prince, arrange the marriage of the emperor's grandson and the princess of the West Sea, and strive for Moxi's reinforcement for the East Palace. The crown prince was overjoyed, and led all the ministers to persuade the emperor in the court, and Taizu abolished the title of King Fu again.

The kings are intrigue, but the day is flourishing, the king of Yan envelops the golden knife gate of Mount Tai, the grace of the East China Sea, the king of Qin sticks to Chang'an, but often walks around with Huashan and Shuzhong, and the Fu Wangfu is deep and simple, and no longer asks about the affairs of Luoyang. However, in the tenth year of Taizu, the turmoil in the Jinling Dynasty broke out again, the emperor personally gave the emperor the grandson a marriage, and the prince ordered his younger brother King Qing to take charge of the Jinyi Guard to inspect the kings of the feudal towns in order to prevent you from making changes in private.

In addition, the goose feather snow shrouded in the sky over Luoyang City, the magnificent Fuwang Courtyard was covered with silver, and the attics at the four corners of the courtyard towered into the sea of clouds and snow, and the bonfire in the attic slowly emitted warm smoke and drifted to the sky. Since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the old Fu Wang Jiang Qi sent skilled craftsmen to build a grand mansion, the Fu Wang Mansion relied on Luoshui to build, located in the north of Luoyang City, hundreds of zhang to the left outside the house is the north city of Luoyang, surrounded by mountains and lakes in the house, thousands of Tibetan soldiers, among which there are many masters of the rivers and lakes gathered, in addition to serving the waiters of the Fu Wang's family, there are also loyal and brave dead soldiers who are carefully trained by the old Fu Wang. They went out on wartime and were responsible for guarding the Fuwang Mansion in peacetime.

Fuwang's Mansion is adjacent to Luoshui Wharf, and corresponds to the Tianxiang Building in the south city. One is the most palatial Gaoxuan Mansion in Luoyang, and the other is the tallest tower in Luoyang. Although the Feilong Pavilion on the top floor of Tianxiang Tower can overlook the whole city of Luoyang, the courtyard of Fuwangfu is deep, rockery ravines, lakes and rivers are staggered, giving outsiders an unpredictable scene.

Passing through the main gate of King Fu's Mansion, Jingwuwei has five steps, one post, ten steps and one sentry. Each place contains the art of Qimen mechanism. Inside the main entrance is the Xiangshan Forest Garden, where the mountains and rocks are abundant, and the attic on the rocks is the same as the snow. Dozens of elite guards lined up, holding umbrellas in front of the rocks, and there was a path next to each of them that stretched out into the rockery behind them.

For those who enter the house, the perspective is blocked by the rocks and snow. Five corridors between the mountains and rocks extend inward, and the corridors are made of southern Xinjiang mahogany.

The Jingwuwei on both sides of the westernmost corridor of the "Your Highness" were dressed in military uniforms, and their eyes were fixed on the oncoming Xiaofu King.

Su Yue and his entourage followed closely behind King Xiaofu, while Jiang Yuan and Xiao Qian led the way in front of them, and there were several armor guards behind them. "It's hard work" Xiao Fu Wang looked at the two of them softly, and said lightly.

Jiang Yuan and Xiao Qian quickly walked up to the wooden corridor behind the two elite guards, glanced back at Su Yue and the others, and motioned for everyone to follow the wooden corridor to the rockery. At this moment, a smile flashed on Xiaofu Wang's delicate face, and he looked back at Su Yue and the others behind him, and said with a smile, "Su Qianhu, this mansion is slightly different from the palaces of Jinling, which makes you smile." ”

Su Yue looked respectful, looked at the rockery surrounded by strange stones, and exclaimed, "Xia Guan has long heard that the mountain stone courtyards in the Fu Wangfu Mansion are lined up, and they are a collection of five elements of ingenuity. Being in it today really opened the eyes of the real officials. Everyone walked along the deep wooden corridor towards the rockery, the wooden corridor is surrounded by mountain stones, such as the snow abyss, the cold light of the arrows in the attic on the top of the mountain and stone makes people feel the cold wind.

"It is reported that in the early years, King Lao Fu asked the heir of the agency to carefully design the mansion, which was difficult for thousands of troops to rush in. Ji Feng's right index finger lightly poked the mahogany on the wooden corridor, and he vaguely felt the sound of gold and stone in the mahogany.

Jiang Yuan, who was walking on the side, saw Ji Feng out of the corner of his eye, his eyes lit up, and he smiled, "What does Brother Ji feel?"

"Huh" Ji Feng said in surprise, "There is steel in the mahogany!" The entire corridor in the rockery seems to be made of ebony mahogany, but in fact, it is made of stainless steel. And there are all kinds of traps hidden in the stainless steel, forming an invisible barrier for those Jianghu wanderers who try to break into the Fu Wangfu.

"Presumably, the entire corridor is made of mahogany on the outside, but the inside is made of stainless steel. If anyone trespasses on King Fu before he arrives in the main hall, he will die between the mountains and stone corridors. What's more, there are nearly 100 elite guards outside the mountains and rocks and between the mansions. Chai Wuming's eyes shone brightly, watching the long corridor wind deeper. He said softly, "Brother Feng, do you have a cold sweat?"

Ji Feng glared at him, and said angrily, "Second brother, don't let me go, I don't dare to trespass into the Fuwang Mansion." “

"Haha..."King Xiao Fu laughed loudly, and said with a straight face, "You are the distinguished guests of my Fu Wang's Mansion, so you don't need to trespass." But why does the jade girl keep being sullen" King Xiaofu saw everyone talking about this mountain and stone garden, but when he saw the jade tassel in the crowd, he bowed his head and was silent, looking at the little eagle in his arms.

As a disciple of the Jinyi Guard's command to make the new income, Jade Tassel has always been silent, in order to let her experience it, Ning Wuji specially asked everyone to take care of her more before leaving. Su Yue frowned slightly when he saw King Xiaofu asking, clenched his hands into fists, and said respectfully, "Your Royal Highness King Fu, I don't know, Senior Sister Tassel has always been like this, silent and silent. When she was in Jinling, the master was also angry with her because of this, and hoped that His Royal Highness King Fu Haihan. ”

"Tassels..."Chai Wuming hurriedly shouted.

The jade tassel raised his head slightly, his face was as white as snow, he looked at everyone, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" At this moment, everyone looked at each other, and they were instantly embarrassed.

Jiang Yuan coughed dryly, breaking everyone's tranquility, the smile on the corner of Xiao Fu Wang's mouth gradually faded, his eyes returned to Jiang Yuan from the jade tassel, and his voice became extremely calm, "What's wrong? Is it that you have been outside for too long and your body is cold. “

Jiang Yan shook his head, a smile flashed in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "It's indeed a little cold, didn't Your Highness prepare a family banquet in the Zhongwu Hall to catch the wind for Su Qianhu and his party?"

"Yes, folks, let's hurry up. Xiaofu Wang smiled handsomely, looked back at the white face of the jade tassel, and said softly, "However, the jade girl is somewhat similar to my housemate, and they are both people who don't like words. “

Su Yue and the others followed the rapid pace of King Xiaofu, cold sweat broke out slightly on their foreheads, and the flying snow that had just covered the sky had not been invaded by the chill. Xiao Qian, who was walking in the front, had wind at his feet, his steps quickened again, and he shouted urgently in front, "The snow in northern Xinjiang is much colder than Jinling, you should be careful." ”

"Be careful?" Ji Feng looked at the backs of Xiao Qian, Jiang Yuan, and Xiaofu Wang, and asked curiously.

"There is a foreign body in the West Sea in this rockery, named Shanshi..."Xiao Qian said lightly, but Su Yue and Chai Wuming, who were not far behind him, heard this, and their faces turned pale.

"Mountain and stone ghosts?" Ji Feng lowered his head and muttered for a moment, raised his head and was about to ask Chai Wuming on the side, only to find that Su Yue and Chai Wuming's faces changed suddenly, and shouted loudly, "Big brother, second brother, what's wrong with you two? Why are your faces so pale, are you really afraid of the snow in the northern Xinjiang?"

Su Yue and Chai Wuming looked at each other, and after looking at each other, they didn't say much, they both settled down, and their pale faces gradually returned to normal. Su Yue and Chai Wuming's minds simultaneously remembered the scene of sneaking into the West Sea a few months ago. The two of them were ordered to go to the shore of the Crescent Lake in the West Sea to secretly escort a woman back to Jinling, and they encountered the mountain and stone monster in the barren sand of the West Sea outside Jiayu Pass.

Subsequently, after returning to Jinling, he inquired about it and learned that the thing was a puppet controlled by the secret art of the Western Regions, which was refined by the demon monks of the Western Regions with the method of blood spell and refined with the refined stone of the Western Regions. The appearance is no different from a person, its speed is like a ghost, it can shoot people into powder with its hands, and the knife cannot be split and the fire is not broken, and it is regarded as the evil spirit of the West Palace.

This thing actually appeared in King Fu's mansion, and it was easily said by the young generals in the mansion. Su Yue and Chai looked at the rockeries around them again, and the mountain stone attic loomed in the sea of snow. The originally mysterious Fuwang Mansion seemed even more mysterious, and although they were ordered to inspect the defenders of the northern frontier, their more important mission was to find out the hidden forces of you.

However, the Fu Wangfu seemed to have deliberately put all of this on the surface, aren't you worried that some people in the Jinling Dynasty will be jealous? At this time, Su Yue, Chai Wuming, Ji Feng, Yu Tassel and others have begun to tremble all over their bodies, and even the little eagle in their arms has been hissing incessantly. The group walked along the wooden corridor inside, and the more they reached the end, the air around them became colder, and the cold wind pierced the skin through the cracks in their robes.

"Hey, are you all right" Xiaofu Wang, standing with his hands in his hands, looked back at the four of them, their faces were pale, and their whole bodies began to tremble.

Su Yue looked at the other three beside him, except for the jade tassel tightly wrapped in a velvet robe, Chai Wuming and Ji Feng had already begun to rub their hands together to keep warm. Su Yue bit her lip and said with a smile, "It's okay... Nothing"

Xiao Fu Wang looked at the appearance of the four people, a trace of concern flowed in his eyes, and he said softly, "At the end of the wooden corridor is Hantan Lake, so it will feel a little cold and biting, but I have already ordered someone to prepare a stove in the attic in front, you hold on for a while." "Palm

"Thank you, Your Highness" Su Yue and the others quickened their pace and followed closely behind King Xiaofu. Previously, several armor soldiers who followed behind them ran to the end of the wooden corridor early at Jiang Yuan's signal to prepare fires and belongings for everyone.
